Combo box control in application designer for maximo 7.6? - maximo

My client's requirement is to have a combo box on one of my custom application in maximo 76. How do I bind a Combo Box in Maximo Application Designer?

Combo box is like any other attribute you include in Application Designer. You must select the attribute that you want to pull to populate the drop down list.

Changing the value that displays for a Combo Box

Combobox control (dropdown) is a control in Maximo Application designer, mostly users prefer to use domain instead of Combobox, but in Maximo we can see combo in number of different location like in PR application SHIPVIA, or WORKTYPE in Workorder Tracking application.
Drop a control just like text field,
set properties; there are two most important properties
i. Attribute
ii. Select Attribute (from where the data comes from, like from ALN domain or from Object)

Group radio buttons on Excel

I have two groups of radio buttons on the same Excel worksheet that I want them to work exclusively from each other.
I tried to search online for answers, and got to know there was GroupName Property which can be used to group the radio buttons, however, I haven't been able to locate this property.
Can anyone tell me how to find it?
There is only object positioning under the property tab of the format control window.
You need to add a group box control and then insert the radio buttons into that group box.

Want to create an column in Dynamic View Panel that displays "Favorites" icon

I am using a Dynamic View Panel and would like to create a "Favorites" column in the view. The underlying view has a "Favorites" multivalue names field that contains all users that have flagged the document as a favorite. What I would like to do is to handle this conversion in a "Customizer" bean where I can compare the current user with the stored vales in the "Favorites" column and see if they are in the list. If they are I would present a "Green Star" icon (not a standard Notes icon) else I would present an empty star icon. I would also like to make the star icon live so if you click on the star it would toggle the favorite value in the database on/off.
How do I implement such a feature?
What are the DominoViewCustomizer methods I need to override? (looking at afterCreateColumn)
How do I get and set the column values? (really lost here)
How do I get the column to display a Notes resource image (my stars) or do I need to store it in a directory on server?
How do I make the star icon clickable?
How do I capture that click event?
Using Domino v9.0.1
If you don't have to use a dynamic view panel here's a way of doing it that will work with a view panel, repeat, or data table...
Use a "favorites" document for each user. Have it contain one multi-value item to store the Note IDs of all the documents the user favorited.
When the user logs on read the contents of the multi-value field into a sessionScope variable. Then in your view column all you need to do is check if the NoteID of the current row is in your sessionScope variable and display the appropriate icon.
For the part when a user clicks on a star you would have an event handler on that column that does a lookup to the user's favorites document (create it if it doesn't exist) and add or remove the NoteID then do a partial refresh on the view.
You can probably still do this with a dynamic view panel but I can't speak to the particulars of it since I don't use it much.

Show/Hide infopath groups programmatically depending on checkbox selection

i'm new to infopath and need to ammend an existing infopath 2010 form. The users only want certain section groups to appear based on the users choice via checkboxes. Currently there are conditional rules in place for each group on the form which are working to hide/show the sections depending on whcih checkbox or checkboxes are selected.(each checkbox relates to a group). There are 19 checkboxes and related groups, the users can select 1 or more groups.
The problem is when users tick the checkbox , there is a delayed reaction seeing as there are so many condtional checks taking place on each click.The users dont like this. they would rather selct all the checkboxes they want , and then click a button to do all the work at once(instead of on each checkbox). So i've been trying to programmatically access the groups from the code behind the buttons to hide/show them depending on which checkboxes are selected. Is it even possible to set the hide/show property of a group in the code behind ?
Thanks in advance for any help
You can't show or hide sections directly with code, but you can affect data sources, which in turn can trigger rules.
See here for updating the data source programatically:

How to select the first item of a combo box in an Access Web-compatible form?

I've created an Access Web database on SharePoint 2010 and I'm editing its forms with Access 2010.
One form includes a set of cascading combo boxes that I've created following these tutorials
Combo Box in Access and Cascading Combo Boxes. The actual data binding is working as expected.
The issue is that when the cascaded combo boxes receive their bound values, the selected item is left blank and I'd like it to pick the first element by default i.e. combo.items(0)
I understand that I'll have to add some sort of macro to select the first element. However, I haven't found a way to do so.
Currently the primary combo boxes invoke through an after update event a requery action on the cascaded combos.
Is there another action that could force as well the selection of the first bound item?
Take a look at http://www.access-programmers.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=38754
You can do this trick OnLoad. So your VBA code behind the form will look something like:
Private Sub Form_Load()
Me.cboTestCombo = Me.cboTestCombo.Column(0, 0)
End Sub
You may need to play around with the indices on Column(N, N) - the example above worked for me to place the first entry from my data rowsource in the combo at start.

Multiple select drop down user control or field control

I want to use multiple select drop down user control or field control on my page layout and I want to pull list items from list and show it on page layout in Sharepoint.Does anyone is having idea how to achieve this.
Thanks,
PS
In SharePoint Designer, go to:
Insert, SharePoint Controls, DataView
on the DataSource Library panel, choose a list and click "Show Data"
Drag and Drop a few fields from the Data Source Details
go to the Toolbox Tab in the same panel as Data Source Details and choose: "Data View Checkbox List"
Configure as you like
Edit based on your reply
If I understand your reply right, how about you have a Yes/No column(field) in your list named "IsVisible" with a Custom View where only items WHERE IsVisible Equals Yes on the web part and the Administrator will just edit the list and change the value for the Visible field.
